Not our fault: PH denies responsibility in collision of Chinese vessels
THE Department of Foreign Affairs on Friday said the Philippines is not responsible for the collision between the People’s Liberation Army Navy vessel and the China Coast Guard vessel near Bajo de Masinloc shoal in the West Philippine Sea.“It was an unfortunate outcome, but not one caused by our actions,” said Foreign Affairs Secretary Theresa Lazaro in an official statement.
Despite being the target of what it described as “harassment,” the PCG said it offered immediate assistance to the Chinese vessels involved, including man-overboard recovery and medical aid.Earlier in the week, the DFA issued a formal protest, condemning China’s “dangerous and irresponsible maneuvers” against Philippine vessels operating legally in the area. The Philippine government also renewed its long-standing demand for restitution from China.
